  • Recipient of the Australia Awards Scholarship

    I would highly recommend individuals interested in healthcare improvement to immerse themselves in Bond's Master of Healthcare Innovations program. This transformative course is a game-changer that introduces new ideas and refines existing ones to significantly enhance healthcare services and improve health outcomes. 

    Dr Amy Ignacio - Master of Healthcare Innovations Alumna
  • Staff Specialist Consultant Physician Supportive and Palliative Care, Gold Coast Hospital and Health Services

    The Healthcare Innovations program has given me a new set of skills that has enabled me to achieve real change by implementing a specialist palliative care project in over 50 residential aged care facilities across the Gold Coast.

    The program has taught me how to engage and empower stakeholders to take action, so together, we can achieve the outcomes we need with the resources we have. I have also learned the pitch presentation skills to present important information to key influencers in the health system. I have garnered their support and resources for a statewide project, which will provide specialist palliative care services in a different way.

    Dr Nicola Morgan - Master of Healthcare Innovations Alumna
  • Netherlands

    The Master of Healthcare Innovations program has given me a unique skillset in which I can connect patient care to health system improvement. The subjects Knowledge Translation in Healthcare and Project Innovation and Change have taught me invaluable theories and concepts. These subjects have given me mindsets and frameworks that are highly applicable if I take on healthcare improvement projects. They helped me better understand the applicability of research and design patient-centred solutions.

    Jo Blass - Master of Healthcare Innovations Alumna and MD student

  • "The Master of Healthcare Innovations has helped me to question things and become a more critical thinker. It has already enhanced my research and presentation skills and I can see that what I’ve learned about managing people, innovation and entrepreneurship will be incredibly useful for helping me achieve my career aspirations in the years to come."
